Prep Time: 20 Minutes
Cook Time: 30 Minutes
Ready In: 50 Minutes
Servings: 6
Ingredients:
1 (1/4-ounce) package active dry yeast
1/2 cup warm water (105 to 110 degrees)
2 cups buttermilk
3 tablespoons peanut oil
2 tablespoons sugar
2 cups whole-wheat pastry flour
1/2 cup rolled oats
4 large egg whites
1/8 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
cooking spray for waffle iron
maple syrup, for serving
Directions:
1. 1. Sprinkle the yeast over the water in a large mixing bowl; let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Add the buttermilk, oil, sugar and flour and whisk until smooth. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
2. 2. Preheat a waffle iron. Whisk the oats, egg whites, baking soda, and salt into the waffle batter until smooth. Lightly mist the hot waffle iron with cooking spray. Add about 1/3 cup of batter to each section, using the back of a spoon to spread batter to the edges. Cook until the waffles are crisp and golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter. Serve with maple syrup.

4. These waffles are light but also crispy on the outside from just a touch of oil and a yeasted batter with buttermilk. Oats and whole wheat pastry flour make a heartier waffle that is delicious with fruit, yogurt or syrup.
